Hey everyone! I'm the solo maker behind Murmur. I built this because every diary app I tried felt like a chore. Opening a blank page, staring at a cursor — it never stuck. But I text people all day without thinking twice. So I thought: what if writing a diary felt exactly like sending a message? Murmur is a chat-style diary where you write in message bubbles. It sounds simple, but the format change genuinely lowers the friction. A three-word bubble is fine. A rant is fine. There's no blank page pressure. A few things I'm proud of: - 100% local & encrypted — AES-256, no account, no cloud, no data collection. Your entries never leave your machine. - Telegram & WeChat sync — Send a message from your phone, it lands in today's diary automatically. Photos and voice messages too. This is my favorite way to capture thoughts on the go. - AI companion — Bring your own API key (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Ollama, etc). The AI reads your entry and responds like a warm friend, not a therapist. - Decoy space — Wrong password shows a separate, innocent-looking diary. Plausible deniability built in. - $9.90 one-time — No subscription. Lifetime updates. I wanted pricing that respects users the same way the app respects their privacy. Built with Tauri (Rust + React), runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux. I'd love to hear your feedback — especially on what features would make you actually keep a diary habit. Thanks for checking it out!

Today I have added a new WeChat connection channel, supporting sending text, voice, and image messages to the note-taking app via WeChat. All content will be automatically synchronized to the diary.
